Solomon. Winterfell.

- So that's what Lina was talking about," I said in a thoughtful voice, sitting in my room and looking at Kinvara, who responded with a faint nod. She was now standing across from me with a confused expression on her face, hiding her eyes and fidgeting in her seat.

To be honest, it was quite a funny sight to see a mature woman showing signs of a young schoolgirl for whom spring had just arrived. Though I distinctly remember Kinvara offering to hook up without much embarrassment in the early days of our acquaintance. The difference between a business relationship and a love relationship, I suppose.

Priestesses of R'Glor, namely the likes of Lina, Erin, and Kinvara, only appear outwardly attractive and seductive, for she is powered by the magic contained in her necklaces. On the other hand, their real age could be a good hundred years, and one only needs to remove the necklace as their bodies will begin to age rapidly and then death will follow, that is, the natural order will be followed.

To summarize it all, Kinvara is not thirty years old, as her appearance says, but much more, as she is quite famous and has been for a long time. And I'm sure there have been men in her extended life that she's been interested in and slept with. Because of that, I find her current behavior interesting, because it's definitely not what you'd expect from a woman who has seen life.

I smiled.

However, I don't see any problem accepting her. Kinvara has always tried to please me ever since I met her. And I know that she will ignore the child and Kirana's situation. But it's worth mentioning.

- Kinvara," I addressed her, to which she straightened up sharply, but still didn't dare to meet my eyes. - Please look at me.

- M-my king? - she asked, doing as I asked.

- I am ready to accept your feelings," I began, to which Kinvara's eyes lit up and an instant smile appeared. - 'But you should know that one woman is already pregnant with my child, and I intend to take care of the two of them. Is that acceptable to you?

Kinvara's reaction was expected.

- Of course it is! You are a king, and for you to have multiple women is absolutely normal! - She exclaimed happily, and then took on a shy look again, throwing a glance at a certain part of my face. - In that case, may I...?

- Don't be shy," I laughed, to which Kinvara slowly approached me and gave me a rather tender kiss that lasted for about five seconds. When our lips left each other, she looked pleased enough that I let out a chuckle and stroked her cheek. - Satisfied?

- Yes, absolutely," Kinvara nodded and regained her usual look with a smile on her face. - What are your orders? Are we going to King's Landing?

I raised an eyebrow at how quickly she'd gone professional again, but since she was fine with it herself, I didn't see any problem backing her up.

- Not yet, no. I want to make time for the Starks and I don't think we'll be moving out until tomorrow morning," I shook my head. - I take it the Primate Murder has already left Winterfell?

- Yes. I believe he left with Lord Stark and his daughters," she said

- Good," I nodded and headed toward Lady Stark, but Kinvara stopped me.

- May I ask you a question? - She asked, to which she received silent consent. - The girl you arrived with...

- I find her interesting. I find her impertinence quite amusing," I replied.

- What do you mean?

- Lavena is not afraid to tell me what she thinks is right. It is not an insult or an attack on my honor, and there is no desire to use or profit at my expense in what she says. She is sincere in what she says, and I wonder what her reaction will be when her dream, namely to see Valyria, comes true.
